Who says toilet humour is the lowest form of wit? Definitely not me, This silly little character was so much fun to create, I like to tailor the advanced forms of movement to the character. For instance making the dash fart propelled, an exploding egg and explosive diarrhea for a laugh. It gives the characters a unique feel to them, it can also translate to game mechanics and give your game a distinct feel to it.
This is going to be a running post for people to post character designs, share helpful tips and spot things creators might have missed.
This is a template I made for a 2D pixel art sprite, available free for people to muck around with.
Here is the sprite I used to create the template
I will be making more templates and sprites to add to this topic, please feel free to add your own templates and character designs, comments suggestions are very welcome. Hopefully this helps anyone getting started with pixel art for games.
